I found this degree of lead a refreshing alternative to the ho-hum HB grade lead. It's darker, and wears a little faster than an HB degree. I couldn't find, however, a difference between the quality of this lead an all the others I use.

Extremely good lead, better than AIN.
However, it's a pain to get the last couple of pieces of lead out of the pack.

Even so, I'll still give it a 5 out of 5 because the problem of the packaging could be solved by using another lead pack, such as the Uni Nano Dia 2B.

It is nice and smooth, so is Ain, however this lead is not as strong as Ain's lead. I was able to break it when I tried, but wasn't able to break Ain's lead, if you find this lead breaking on you during the course of your writing, go with Ain. However, this is nice, feels smooth against the paper, and is not "easy" to break. Took more force to break it than I normally put on a pencil while writing, so it's a keeper yay! I have this and Ain won't need lead for a while.

Dark lines, a bit harder than others on the paper, straightforward and easy to use case. Among the best leads.

Excellent leads! It writes smooth, dark and it does't break easily. If you like Pentel Stein 4B, you will definitely like this leads.

very good! does not break

i've used most of the different lead brands available here at jetpens, and have settled on using the eno neox. it's a very soft lead, softer in comparison to ain or uni-ball 2b leads, yet still strong enough to resist breakage. no problem with the dispenser design. flip the top open and the lead flows out freely.

Best lead that I ever used anyway works great on Blue line Pro comic boards.
It's slicker then Pentel lead I haven't had it break and I use alot of pressure at times
with it for drawing. Works great in a Pentel Kerry

This lead came as quite a surprise to me. I didn't think there was much competition to Pentel's Ain lead, but Pilot has made this lead the way I like it: dark and smooth. It's darker than your average HB grade lead, to boot. Consequently, it smudges a little more easily. However, seeing as how I like a HB lead that's this dark and smooth, it fits the bill perfectly.

the container looks good but to take the lead out... omfg.. big time fail, bad design.. took me 30 min to empty em out. i put em in my old container. the quality of the lead is no diff from Ain lead. i would recommend get lead from Ain, easy to take the lead out and cheaper too.
go ahead, buy one u will c wat i am talkin' about. good luck!!
